I guess my body is just doing this up and down thing right now. I also forgot to take my mag all week so I'm having bathroom issues again. I think it's been about 4 days now & that's not good so I took mag last night and this morning and if nothing moves today I'll drink some smooth move tea before bed. That stuff usually makes me crampy though so I don't like to drink it often.

Nakia's weight is rebounding from his trips to the bar (another one last night) so we expect one more gain tomorrow... par for the course, but he's still 5.2 below his LIW & not eating any non-P3 foods so he'll be just fine. He never has a problem maintaining in P3. It's P4 that gets sticky.

Biz - I actually like being on P2 with Nakia. That way we only have P2 food in the house since we don't have any kids, but when he moves on to P3, since he always does a shorter round than me, he's eating all this P3 stuff right when I need to strengthen my resolve to get through the rest of my round. Every once in a while, it gets to me, but I'm doing good today.
I ordered the chinese food steamed with the sauce on the side. They know to not let any oil touch it when I order it that way & the protein portion is usually perfect for P2... so that (and sushi without rice) is my goto fast food choice on P2.

I gotcha on the P2 foods around the house. And you called it with the gain for Kia - and I need to get with you on that "other" thing.

Just a quick fly by today.

Hi Monica -

I am just about to end my R1P2 and am excited to be on P3. When I start up R2 in early May (taking a 4 week run at P3) my DH will be joining (so he says). I too can't wait for that cause out with the horrible tempting foods (chips, cookies...etc). You are doing well and an inspiration. By the way, when I start R2P2 I will definately be adding mag. The lack of BM's is HORRIBLE!
